Chapter 15, Ming Emperor Zhu Houzhao arrived in Jinling!

Liu Jian was carried down.

The situation in the Fengtian Temple has become strange.

Especially with the divine assistance of Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling, the two relatives and uncles.

After they said this, the big stain of the cabinet and the civilian clique forcing Zhu Houzhao to flee south to Jinling could not be washed away.

Liu Jian has the primary responsibility.

However, life still has to move on.

Liu Jian can't preside over it, as well as Li Dongyang and Yang Tinghe.

"Lord Yang, what should I do now?"

Wang Yue was very worried about his future, after all, Zhu Houzhao took away all the jade seals, although he had the right to wear red as the celebrant and eunuch, but the holy decree was not sealed, so it did not have legal effect, and Zhu Houzhao could use the reason of falsely transmitting the holy decree to their heads at any time.

Similarly, the various decrees drafted by the cabinet also need to be stamped with a jade seal.

"The top priority now is to chase His Majesty back."

replaced Liu Jian as the talker for a while, Yang Tinghe didn't feel the glory, but had a headache.

"I'm afraid it's not easy to chase, Your Majesty is going to worship Taizu after all......"

Li Dongyang felt that Zhu Houzhao's means had changed, and as soon as this kind of righteous means came out, they had no legitimate reason.

Although, they don't want Zhu Houzhao's jade seal for the time being, they can also act for the time being, and they can use the queen mother's decree to temporarily replace it.

But after all, Zhu Houzhao is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor is still alive, what is the queen mother's decree, is the harem in politics?

"It's still going to be chased back, didn't Your Majesty go to worship Taizu?"

Yang Tinghe said firmly: "We need to send someone to worship with Your Majesty, and when Your Majesty finishes worshipping, we will ask Your Majesty to come back." ”

Blocking definitely can't be stopped, but they want to make sure that after Zhu Houzhao uses up this reason, he will return to Beijing immediately.

Otherwise, the emperor is in the south, and the civil and military officials are in the north.

What is this?

"I'll go!"

Li Dongyang automatically asked, after all, he was the emperor's teacher and the No. 3 person in the cabinet, and Xie Qian was not there, so he took the initiative to look around at the courtiers: "I will take some of my colleagues and go to Jinling together." ”

Yang Tinghe's face sank slightly, and he felt some careful thinking from Li Dongyang.

He didn't dare to think about it in case Li Dongyang didn't come back, and if he really invested in Zhu Houzhao's side, the officialdom in the north would really become an empty shell.

His political future is over.

But there must be someone in the north.

Yang Tinghe naturally realized that after Zhu Houzhao's absurd trouble, basically Liu Jian's career as the first assistant would end early, and he had the possibility of ascending to the top.

Being able to successfully invite Zhu Houzhao back can be regarded as the authority of establishing the authority of the cabinet, and it will be more logical for him to become the first assistant after Li Dongyang.

I'm afraid, Zhu Houzhao really dared to create a precedent, and risked the world's disapproval to set up another court.

But this kind of thing has never been seen in the past.

There is an example...... Kublai Khan, the ancestor of the Yuan dynasty, left the capital of the Mongol Empire and went to Dadu to set up another country called Dayuan, which can be regarded as another kind of separate court.

But, does Zhu Houzhao dare?

Yang Tinghe didn't dare to think about it, Zhu Houzhao suddenly ran away from home, and it was not a big deal to set up another court.

"Master Li, you must invite Your Majesty back."

He could only look at Li Dongyang with such anticipation, the emperor's teacher couldn't invite back, and he didn't know who else could be invited.

"I will."

"I still need the Queen Mother's decree."

Li Dongyang nodded heavily, he didn't want to make such a fuss to the point of tearing his face, let alone making the worst choice, otherwise he would also be spurned by the Manchu Dynasty and cut himself off from Shilin.

"Please decree the Queen Mother......"

The Manchu Dynasty basically reached a consensus.

After retiring from the dynasty, Zhu Houzhao was forced to flee Jinling by the ministers, especially Liu Jian, the first assistant, and immediately swept the entire capital like a tornado.

From the emperor's relatives to the peddlers' pawns, they were all shocked for a while and talked about it with relish.

Then Zhu Houzhao's departure from Jinling spread to the whole country with the capital as the core, and more and more people knew about Zhu Houzhao's deviant moves.

Liu Jian finally woke up and learned that this was indeed the case, and he was vomited several mouthfuls of blood, and his condition became even more serious.

Of course, the news of Zhu Houzhao's departure from Jinling, in this era, is still not as fast as Zhu Houzhao.

However, with the passage of time, the vassal kings in some places received Zhu Houzhao's holy decree in advance.

For example, Zhu Youqi, the king of Huguang'an Lufu.

"Your Majesty asked this king to worship Taizu for him?"

Xingwang Zhu Youqi is Chinese New Year's Eve years old today, and when he received Zhu Houzhao's holy decree, he and the princess made a vow in the temple, because his princess was pregnant again.

The eldest son, Zhu Houxi, has died young, and he has not yet given birth to a daughter, and wants a son to inherit the throne.

I have thought of a name, it's called Zhu Houxi.

When he received this holy decree, Zhu Youqi also felt surprised.

But the emperor's holy decree, even if the emperor is his nephew, he does not dare to slack off.

Hurriedly returned home to receive the holy decree, only to know that Zhu Houzhao asked him to go to Jinling.

"Father-in-law, when are you leaving?"

He hurriedly asked his father-in-law who had arrived, without the slightest suspicion. After all, the emperor is far away in the capital, and it is not easy to get out, and as the emperor's direct uncle and the eldest prince, he is fully qualified to worship Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Your Majesty said that the sooner the better, Your Royal Highness King Xing, after you arrange the affairs at home, you can set off."

"Okay, this king will pack up and set off, it may take three days."

Worshipping Taizu for the emperor, this matter naturally cannot be sloppy, Zhu Youqi immediately began to prepare, and then after being ready, he set off with the same group.

……

"Phew, I'm really tired of rushing all the way!"

"It's finally time to get to Fengyang."

On the eighth day of departure from the capital, Zhu Houzhao arrived in Fengyang.

He didn't go straight to Jinling, after all, as the prince and grandson, he couldn't pass by Fengyang without worshipping.

Do a full set of plays, since you are nominally here to pay homage to Taizu, you naturally have to pay homage in Fengyang.

So, Zhu Houzhao immediately asked Liu Jin and them to identify themselves, and directly took advantage of the fact that the chat group had not yet been opened to pay homage to the ancestral tomb of Fengyang.

At this point, Zhu Houzhao also clearly knows that there is no need to hide his identity and whereabouts.

He had to make a little more mobilization, so that the whole country would know that he had come to Jinling.

Otherwise, what if the cabinet declares that he is dead and appoints another emperor?

Naturally, he had to guard against this.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly during the worship ceremony, and when the worship was completed, the officials of Ying Tianfu had already come to greet him in person.

So, he didn't twist anything, and directly under the greeting of the officials of the six ministries of Jinling, and under the watchful eyes of the people of Jinling, he swaggered into Jinling.

It's just that he doesn't know.

When he came, it was like dropping a pebble on the surface of a calm lake, and it suddenly stirred up a thousand waves.

The flying pigeons of Jinling spread in all directions like raindrops.

Some wealthy businessmen and wealthy families in the southern provinces, especially in the coastal provinces, immediately learned of Zhu Houzhao's visit to Jinling, and the reactions of various forces were immediately different.
